What Makes It Great

Its mountain peaks offer stunning views of the lake and surrounding landscapes. Spread out over 4,800 acres, the resort has four separate base facilities and 97 runs. Operated by Vail Resorts, which also owns Kirkwood and Northstar at Lake Tahoe and four resorts in Colorado, Heavenly has one of the largest snow-making systems around, which it runs during low-snow months. Check snow conditions online before you go. Heavenly also operates a gondola up from the popular South Shore region.
